Pitched It Sheer into the River. . . Where It Still Is Seen in the Summer, 1889
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print by Frederic Remington takes us back to the heart of America in the late 19th century. The image portrays a lone canoeist navigating through the rugged beauty of nature, surrounded by towering boulders and a meandering river. Remington's masterful use of oil on canvas brings this scene to life, capturing both the serenity and adventure that await within. The canoeist, an American Indian man deeply connected to his indigenous roots, embodies a rich heritage that is intricately woven into the fabric of this land. As he skillfully paddles through these waters, we are reminded of Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's timeless poem "Pauwating River" which celebrates both the natural beauty and cultural significance of this very location. Remington's artwork not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to our shared history. Through his brushstrokes, he invites us to reflect upon our connection with nature and appreciate its enduring presence throughout generations. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this masterpiece continues to inspire visitors from all walks of life. Its powerful depiction reminds us that art has no boundaries – it transcends time and place while preserving stories that deserve recognition for their profound impact on our collective identity.
